After sale????????

[i][font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=DarkGreen]Those days I get the mail from the clients who have got their goods, but bad news to hear that , some are not satisfied with it. Here is the sample mail of one client. He:F4I;_b
First I want to make something clear:
E m`+Xes#Vd6K We are doing business in glassware like vases and candle holders for decoration. For glass, u know it is hard to be sure that there will be no broken ones during the transportaion. But we would try our best to decrease the broken rate. Making good package. But still such things happened, and this time, more than 1000 is broken. How to deal with it? This might be called after sale service. And for us, we are only a small compnay with several sales. [/color][/size][/font][/i]6t{P6T*r:X

Jn1S2[OH9Y'k For the broken glass, I find in the photo sent to me that it is caused by incorrect loading way.

We reminded them the goods are glassware, and we asked them to pay attention to our warnings. Maybe cos of too many cartons waiting for loading and time was limited for them, so they forgot or ignored our warning.

Thank you. I also learn something from your good tips. I met once before. The customer claimed for compensation and described the issue top urgently. I was shacked after got that email. But we know well on ourselves product and told him in a frim voice and let him send some sample back for check. Lucky, things went well step by step and at last, it ends well. Yes, we have to keep a clear mind and know what we should and have to do while face such issues. After all, it is not a good thing because we do foreign business not face to face. Many things we may have to write and write back. Then contract and ngotiation are much important

My observation : it seems to me that whenever an inexperience trader has encountered the similar business claim situation, they firstly reacted panically and losing cool, more so worrying unable to retain the customer and as a result prone to settle whatever claim customer requested.

? WG p:@#kJbz 1) keep cool, act rationally

:L We want to control the quatlity,but as a small company, we donot have the time and ernergy to deal with it, at the same time, the factories is far from our company, That is the disadvantage of us.

Don't have time and energy to deal with it? Quality is the key to survive. If you are not sure about the quality of your own products, how can clients trust its quality.  Of course it's not the responsibility of yours, but I think your company must pay attention to control quality strictly.
